We have been graded as 'Outstanding' in our lastest 3 inspections. Last Nov 2019. We deliver the early years foundation stage and offer the 15 & 30 funded hours for 2, 3 & 4 year olds. Our playroom is light, spacious & inclusive for all children and leads off to the part patio, part grassed & decked garden and play house. We have many various age appropropriate toys and resources and children can choose activities including arts, crafts, baking, stories, nursery rhymes, sand, water out door play in the play house and trips to local amenities. We also have our own children allotment, children and dig, play in the mud kitchen area, help plant and water and learn about growth and decay first hand. We have quiet areas for children to relax, read and take a nap. We work closely with other childminders in Thornaby & Ingleby Childminding group we support one another to offer the children social outing opportunities, many joint fund raising events such as Bernardo’s big toddles, Red Nose Day and other annual get togethers for parents and children Eg.
